Bazx7r, that's actually quite funny!But maybe it's not a capital L, just a lower case l, so it could be a long stroke single like an old 6/1Lister?All cast iron and 4 horsepower... No wonder it was slow!

Wow, the comments on here labeling VR & JB the culprits, conspiracies with tires and the lack of CS.

Please, a short history re-cap,

Ducati were competitive 2005 to 2007 due to tires designed specifically for the bike.

Ducati were competitive 2008 to 2010 due to CS.

CS was pick 4 at end of 2006 and if one of the first 3 accepted, ducatis competitive run would have finished at 2007 & stoners career would have finished in 2006 (at that point, a lack luster career at that).

My point, Ducati have never been a great bike, through tires and CS they managed to achieve what they have and CS owes Ducati just as much for his success as they owe CS for theirs.
